In addition to South Carolina, which was the first state to secede from the Union in 1860, six other Southern states that followed suit were Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, and Texas. These states seceded in the lead-up to the Civil War, primarily in response to issues surrounding slavery and states' rights. Each state joined the Confederacy, which sought to establish itself as a separate nation from the United States.
